Bug Description

Binary package hint: freeradius

1) Description: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch)
Release: 8.10

2) freeradius:
  Installed: 2.0.4+dfsg-4
  Candidate: 2.0.4+dfsg-4
  Version table:
 *** 2.0.4+dfsg-4 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) In radiusd.conf I have:
 listen {
        type = "auth"
        ipaddr = 127.0.0.1
        port = 1812
}

or when I start freeradius manually: freeradius -i 127.0.0.1 -p 1812 -X
The daemon should be listening at specified port.

4) But what I get in log is:

Listening on authentication address * port 44972
Listening on accounting address * port 50894
Listening on proxy address * port 39648

Seems that this is the same problem https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=413250
2.0.5 version should solve it.

I think this is an important fix that we should have for intrepid. I have updated the package to 2.0.5: The changelog is the following:

Feature Improvements

    * Permit SQL authorize_reply_query to be empty.
    * Allow setting response packet type in Post-Proxy-Type Fail handler.
    * Added install-chown target to set correct permission and ownership make RADMIN=radmin RGROUP=radius install-chown.
    * Support for LDAP-Group and other dynamic comparison attribute in unlang. Developed from a patch by Jason Alderfer.
    * Added chroot support. See radiusd.conf for comments.
    * Allow clients of 0/0. We do not recommend using this, though.
    * Moved many module configurations into raddb/modules/*.

Bug Fixes

    * Allow proxying to virtual servers for accounting packets, too.
    * Added num_fields function to PostgreSQL client. This lets clients be read from a PostgreSQL database.
    * Updated proxy fallback mechanism to validate fallback servers, and to process fallback requests in a child thread.
    * The realm module returns ok for LOCAL realms, not noop.
    * Fixed some DHCP code handling. The examples should now work.

i humbly ask for a FFE for freeradius
